Hi Darren
nice shot, well captured
my personal suggestions would be to crop if to center the nebula into the frame
and I agree, the data can be stretched a bit.
not 100% sure how its done with Gimp but see if you can get a histogram of the image, adjust the black point a tad to darken the blackground and push the midtones a bit to brighten up the nebula
(i just tried it out a bit in PS and it reveals more of the neb)

well done
frank
